Feed-Mill RFQ: Extrusion and Pelleting Lines for Fish and Shrimp Feed
For farm groups and investors building their own fish or shrimp feed production. One brief, reviewed by a person, so suppliers quote comparable lines.
Short answer
What does an aquafeed mill RFQ need to contain?
A feed-mill RFQ needs the target species and feed types (sinking, floating, shrimp pellets), pellet sizes, annual and hourly output, raw materials you will use, process route (grinding, mixing, conditioning, extrusion or pelleting, drying, coating), bagging or bulk handling, site power, building status and the scope of installation and training. With that defined, competing suppliers quote the same line.
- Sizing basis:
- Tonnes per hour × operating hours
- Common omission:
- Raw-material specification
- Supplier identities:
- Confidential until you approve
- Project focus:
- USD 250,000+ commercial projects

How does FishMatch Group source suppliers for this requirement?
You submit one structured request. We translate it into a technical RFQ, run it against qualified manufacturers and integrators in the relevant categories, and return normalised quotations you can compare side by side on scope, lead time and total cost of ownership.

No. Supplier identities stay confidential during discovery and evaluation. You receive anonymised, comparable technical and commercial packages, and introductions happen only after both sides are qualified and agree to proceed.
Before you request quotes
Supplier selection criteria
How should a buyer compare aquaculture suppliers?
Compare on evidence, not on presentation: delivered projects at a similar scale and climate, engineering support during design, lead time commitments, spare-part and service availability in your region, certification and testing documentation, payment and warranty terms, and willingness to quote against your specification rather than substituting a catalogue package.
What are the warning signs in a supplier quotation?
Treat these as review triggers: no itemised scope, guaranteed biological or financial performance, no named delivery terms or lead time, no spare-parts or service statement, unclear responsibility for installation and commissioning, and equipment sizing that does not reference your water temperature, oxygen demand or biomass targets.
How does FishMatch handle supplier selection?
FishMatch is an independent sourcing service, not a manufacturer or reseller. The buyer submits one structured project request; our team reviews it first and only then contacts suitable suppliers on the buyer's behalf, presenting their responses through FishMatch in a comparable format. Buyers do not contact suppliers directly and nothing is sent automatically. The final choice stays with the buyer.
